   About eyes like saucers

--- parmalee ---
13 july 1993 - 7 september 2008


meeting a dog you suddenly see the abyss of love. such limitless love doesn’t fit our economy. we cannot cope with such an open, superhuman relation. -- hélène cixous

i have never felt so lost or alone ...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
eyes like saucers is the solo project of j. knoch, formerly the farfisa organist for secret eye recording artists - urdog. with eyes like saucers, the darker and more organic regions of inner space are explored ala a slightly modified indian pedal harmonium, effected voice, and sundry accoutrements. drawing inspiration from such artist as nico, robert wyatt, carl orff, and early 20th century german poet, georg trakl, the incessant and labored breathing of the ancient harmonium evokes a bleak and troubled age that, ironically, can best be surmised as a post-apocalyptic era that we have as yet to arrive upon
